We have been around for 17 years and have never had a tip jar. Why now? Because our ad revenue has been slashed by 75%.

There has been a slow downward drift in CPMs all across the internet, but apparently the main cause of the current revenue collapse is that a left-wing group that calls itself “Fight the Hate” or something like that has circulated a list of the top 100 or so conservative web sites to corporate marketing departments, urging them to blacklist those sites, including ours, in their advertising

Unfortunately, corporate marketing departments tend to be receptive to such bullying, left-wing appeals, and that seems to be the main reason why our revenue has dwindled to a trickle.
